A. Introduction
Thank you for selecting the MMD100. The main features include a
10" Wide Screen (16:9 Aspect Ratio) Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
monitor and a built-in DVD player. The unit applies the latest state of
the art electronics. The unit is constructed to provide years of reli-
able, trouble-free service. Please read the entire instruction manual
supplied with this product prior to operation. The documentation will
assist you in installing the system properly to obtain the best equip-
ment performance. Please store this manual for later use.
B. Cautions and Warnings
1. Installation
Ensure that the MMD100 is installed in accordance with the in-
structions and illustrations provided in this manual.
2. Objects and Liquids
Do not push objects of any kind into the unit through openings; do
not spill or spray liquid of any kind on or in the system (this may
result in a fire or electric shock). To ensure proper ventilation and
properoperation,nevercoverorblocktheventilationslotsandopen-
ings
3.Disassembly
Do not attempt to disassemble the cabinet. There is a risk of elec-
tric shock and/or exposure to Laser Radiation. Contact qualified
service personnel if your system is in need of repair.
4. Cleaning Unit
Whencleaning, make surethesystemis unplugged fromthepower
source. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a
cloth lightly dampened with water for cleaning the exterior of the
system only.

5
5. Disc
Do not use irregularly shaped discs such as heart or star-shaped
discs as they may cause the unit to malfunction. Do not stick pa-
per, tape or glue on the disc. Do not expose the disc to direct sun-
light or heat sources such as hot air ducts. Do not touch the sur-
face of disc. Handle the disc by its edge. Clean the disc by wiping
the disc from the center out with a cleaning cloth. Remove the disc
from the unit and store it in its case after playing. Some playback
operations of discs may be intentionally fixed by software produc-
ers. Since this unit plays discs according to the disc contents the
software producers designed, some playback features may not be
available. Also refer to the instructions supplied with the discs.

TOOLS REQUIRED:
#2 Phillips Screwdriver
#1 Phillips Screwdriver
Utility or Razor Knife or Shears
Wire Strippers
Upholstery hook tool (for removal of panels as necessary)
Electrical Tape
MaskingTape
Multimeter(toverify12 volt DC and continuity: Do not use a test light
or logic probe)
Marker pen – to mark headliner
Scribe (to mark trim ring if used)
Misc. electrical connectors (to connect to vehicle power source).
Requirements will vary from vehicle to vehicle.
GENERAL INSTALLATION APPROACH:
1) Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed
(i.e.:whatcomponents, VCP,Tuner, RF Modulator/external amp, re-
mote headphones, DVD, etc.).
2) Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements
and hook ups.
3) Decide upon mounting locations of all components and method of
mounting.
4) Prep the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain ac-
cess to vehicle's wiring as well as all areas where interconnecting
wire harnesses will need to be located. If any access holes need to
be cut into the vehicle (headliner, other trim components etc.), this
should be done now as well.
D. Installation and Powering

7
5) Route the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle as necessary.
(Refer to the Wiring Diagrams on page 10 of this manual as well as
the wiring instructions for the individual components and accessory
options being installed). Be sure that all wiring is protected from
sharpedges and is routed in suchamannerthat it will not bepinched
when all components and interior trim are fully installed. Be sure to
leaveenoughslackinthewiringateachcomponenttoallowworking
room.
Note: If the vehicle is equipped with Side CurtainAir Bags, do not
run wires in the vacinity of the Side CurtainAir Bags.
6) Remove allA/V system components from their packaging and place
them loosely in the vehicle at their respective locations.
7) Connect all components together (electrically) and verify proper op-
eration of all system functions. Note: This is best done BEFORE
components have been permanently mounted.
8) Afterverifying properoperationof thesystem,proceed tomounteach
of the components.
9) Whenall components are mounted, recheck the entiresystem again
to ensure that no wiring was pinched or connected improperly dur-
ingfinalinstallation.

Note: The MMD100 video system is only intended for an overhead,
dropdown installation.Itisnot intendedforseat back oranyother
type of mounting. The hinging mechanism is designed for hori-
zontal, drop down use only.
VEHICLE PREPARATION:
1) Locate an accessory power source (+12v when key is in the ACC.
and run positions, and 0v when key is off). Generally, this wire can
be found at the ignition switch or fuse-box.
2) The mounting method and location will vary from vehicle to vehicle,
so this manual will only focus on the installation of the video monitor
and related console accessories.
3) Generally,thebestlocationforthevideomonitoriswherethevehicle's
factory dome light is installed. The monitor should be located in
such a manner that it can be comfortably viewed by rear seat pas-
sengers. NEVERINSTALLTHEMONITORINAPLACEWITHINTHE
DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS, BUT IT IS
ALSOILLEGAL.
4) Once the mounting location of the monitor has been determined,
there may be additional preparation work necessary, depending on
the vehicle structure and installation method. Some of the steps
that may be required are:
A) Removal of the vehicle's dome light.
B) The headliner may need to be trimmed.

1. Place the MMD100 on a soft surface with the rubber gasket
facing up. Use care to avoid scratching the unit’s exterior sur-
face.
2. Take off the rubber ring.
3. Place the trim ring on the unit and note the location of the four
mounting screws.
4. Attach the trim ring to the unit using the longer four (4) 2.6 X
10mm screws supplied.
5. Attach the four (4) post extensions to the bracket (Figure 3).

1) Make the connections to the vehicle with the 5 pin wiring harness.
2) Connect the 5 pin harness to the mating connector on the Video
Monitor.
3) Connect power harness to vehicle's electrical system by tapping
into an accessory hot line.
4) Verify allfunctionsofthesystembeforefinalmountingof the finished
assembly.
NOTE: A VCP or other A/V Component can be connected to the
video monitor system using an RCA A/V cable. This second har-
ness would plug into the AV1 inputs or AUX jack.

CONNECTING THE DOME LIGHTS
The dome lights in the video monitor require three connections to the
vehicle's wiring. There are two common types of dome light circuits
used, positive or negative switched. Positive systems supply voltage to
the interior lights to turn them on, negative switched systems apply
ground to illuminate the bulbs. To determine which system you have
you must locate the wires at the dome light. On a positive switched
system, with all the doors closed and the lights out, both wires at the
dome light will rest at ground. When the light is activated, one of these
wires will switch to +12V DC. This is the vehicle's switching wire. On a
negative switched system, with all the doors closed and the lights out,
both wires at the dome light will rest at + 12V DC. When the light is
activated, one of these wires will switch to ground. This is the switching
wire.
For positive systems, connect the violet / brown (Lamp auto) wire to the
vehicle's switched wire. Then connect the red / black (lamp on) wire to
a fused constant 12 volt source and the black / red (lamp common) wire
to a good ground. Positive systems are commonly found on Ford ve-
hicles.
For negative systems, connect the violet / brown (Lamp auto) wire to
the vehicle's switched wire. Then connect the red / black (lamp on) wire
to a good ground and the black / red (lamp common) wire to fused con-
stant 12 volt source. Negative systems are commonly found on Gen-
eral Motors and import vehicles.
Note:
Some vehicles which incorporate transistorized control of the dome
light circuit, such as the 1999 Dodge Caravan, may require that the
violet / brown (Lamp auto) wire be connected to the door pin switch
wire, as the additional current draw of the Monitor's lights may not be
supported by the output of the vehicles body control computer.
